Assessment

New Hope Mission is a specialized AMiA chaplaincy-style ministry in St. Peters, Missouri under Rev. Wayne Wimbish. The church is a weekly gathering of approximately 45 nursing home residents — its stated mission is "taking the church to seniors who can't otherwise get out to come to the church." Unusual ecclesiology (no fixed parish facility) but a creative response to overlooked elder demographic. AMiA conservative Anglican.
